As well as claiming the PFA young player of the year award, Lennon Miller was also recently named Motherwell's player of the year [SNS]

Winning PFA Scotland's young player of the year award is another "proud moment" in a "pretty surreal" rise for Motherwell midfielder Lennon Miller.

The 18-year-old came on top in the ballot against James Wilson of Hearts, Celtic's Arne Engels and Rangers' Hamza Igamane.

The teenager, who has scored four goals and assisted seven in 36 games this term, was also nominated for last season's prize but lost out to Kilmarnock's David Watson.

"It's hard to put it into words just now," said Miller, who was called up to the senior Scotland squad in March. "It's just a proud moment and I'm thankful to everybody who voted for me."

On his rapid rise, the midfielder added: "It's pretty surreal. You don't see many 18-year-olds doing stuff like this. You just try and take it in your stride."

Son of former Aberdeen and Scotland striker Lee Miller, the teenager said there were a "few tears getting shed" by his family members after he was announced as the winner.

But when asked about speculation surrounding his future, the youngster said he is still keen to "keep that to one side" as he aims for a strong end to the season.
